perfect timing...

jackson's first trip to the zoo will always be a memorable one for me.  it wasn't because he recognized the animals or because he was a good boy and didn't cry.  it was, in fact, because he pooped.  you may wonder why this would be post worthy because babies poop all the time.  well, apparently not jackson.  after five days of holding out (or holding it in), he still hadn't gone.  i guess we can say he was waiting for a special day.  a day when we weren't at home, safe in our environment, away from the crowds, with plenty of supplies.

i had a feeling that today would be the day.  i even put him in disposable diapers just in case any incidents occurred while we were at the zoo.  then it happened...and for a few moments i was actually thrilled...but there are no words that can even properly describe the event.  if i had an extra set of hands i probably would have taken a picture, as it was my two were covered in you know what.

so excited that he FINALLY did it!

Hooray Jackson! We're having similar issues here with Samuel. Maybe they need to get together for a pooping party?
